[Zope] security questions

[kosh@aesaeion.com]

1 Go to your root folder and click on security in it. You probably have
anonymous view set there.

2 In that same location at the very bottom of the screen there is a place
to type in the name of a new role. It is called User defined roles type
the name of one in and click add. You can then modify that role.

3. It is a good idea to make an editor role and give them the permissions
they will need.

Log onto irc.openprojects.net #zope there is usually someone around who
can help with problems like this.
